About Me

I identify with most things Hudson Valley.  The natural beauty of rivers, mountains, reservoirs, and changing seasons.  My small but growing family.  Friends, old and new.  Farm fresh foods prepared by Culinary Institute of America trained chefs, and local craft juice, beer, and cider.  I am a bit too obsessed with sand volleyball at Riverfront Park, and may have broken 2 toes this spring.  The towns along the Hudson exude unique culture, and I love checking out the art, music, architecture, history, and people of each.  While most travelers are eager to explore internationally, I recently decided to experience some of the mid-sized cities in the US containing much of what I love about the Hudson Valley.
